25장. Configuring a virtual domain as a resource

config

(required) Absolute path to the libvirt configuration file for this virtual domain.

hypervisor

System dependent

Hypervisor URI to connect to. You can determine the system’s default URI by running the virsh --quiet uri command.

force_stop

0

Always forcefully shut down ("destroy") the domain on stop. The default behavior is to resort to a forceful shutdown only after a graceful shutdown attempt has failed. You should set this to true only if your virtual domain (or your virtualization back end) does not support graceful shutdown.

migration_transport

System dependent

Transport used to connect to the remote hypervisor while migrating. If this parameter is omitted, the resource will use libvirt's default transport to connect to the remote hypervisor.

migration_network_suffix

Use a dedicated migration network. The migration URI is composed by adding this parameter’s value to the end of the node name. If the node name is a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), insert the suffix immediately prior to the first period (.) in the FQDN. Ensure that this composed host name is locally resolvable and the associated IP address is reachable through the favored network.

monitor_scripts

To additionally monitor services within the virtual domain, add this parameter with a list of scripts to monitor. Note: When monitor scripts are used, the start and migrate_from operations will complete only when all monitor scripts have completed successfully. Be sure to set the timeout of these operations to accommodate this delay

autoset_utilization_cpu

true

If set to true, the agent will detect the number of domainU's vCPUs from virsh, and put it into the CPU utilization of the resource when the monitor is executed.

autoset_utilization_hv_memory

true

If set it true, the agent will detect the number of Max memory from virsh, and put it into the hv_memory utilization of the source when the monitor is executed.

migrateport

random highport

This port will be used in the qemu migrate URI. If unset, the port will be a random highport.

snapshot

Path to the snapshot directory where the virtual machine image will be stored. When this parameter is set, the virtual machine’s RAM state will be saved to a file in the snapshot directory when stopped. If on start a state file is present for the domain, the domain will be restored to the same state it was in right before it stopped last. This option is incompatible with the force_stop option.
